    No. Again, I will ask, since it wasn't answered before, did you use any resources to try and match your coin to a known DDO/DDR?

    Coinroller what is your understanding of what DDR is as an acronym that relates to coins? I ask because what you post is almost always easily identified as damage to random locations on the coin that you post. A true DDO or DDR would show doubling on the coin at the exact same place on every coin struck by that particular die. The die is where the error is located and every coin struck by the die displays the error in the same place. Just something to think about....

    Okay good deal. Read this and learn a bit about how dies are made. This just scratches the surface, as you know from your googling about how dies are made and coins are struck.

    It was actually 5 minutes according to the post time stamps...
    But either way, it didn’t take long to look at your images and see that the coin in question clearly wasn’t a doubled die.

    Wasn't excited to say no. In fact, I'd be super excited to say yes. But that would require you doing some homework and research first. That, and actually finding a real doubled die.
    Trust me, I don't enjoy bursting peoples' bubbles all the time.

    Not sure if you have these two sites bookmarked or not. If you don't, you should. They are always my first stop when comparing what I believe to be a doubled die:

    It took me only 1 to 2 seconds to see that it is damage and not even close to what a doubled die looks like. I suggest that you take the time to read the information that was given you instead of being hasty.

    What it should yell you is that we know what we are talking about. We've done the research and looked at the examples. Spent the time.

    What it should say to you is that what you thought was evidence of die doubling was infact nothing more than damage. Hence a quick glance around the areas you pointedbto said normal die.
    I still hold true to my statement do some more learning so that you arent called out. No one here is eating crow except you. Your coin is a normal damged wheat cent. Get over it and move on.
